Semiconductor quality

ROM (read only memory)

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

A semiconductor device for storing data in permanent, nonerasable form, usually accomplished through the configuration of the metal mask pattern during wafer fabrication.

salt atmosphere

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Exposure of sample devices to a salt rich environment to determine long-term durability of the package materials.

built-in test (BIT)

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Subcircuitry designed into a circuit to allow that circuit to test itself either at a predetermined interval or upon external command.

total dose radiation

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Accumulated radiation due to prolonged exposure to a radiation field (as encountered, for example, by satellites in the earth's Van Allen belt).

bulk CMOS

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Conventional CMOS integrated circuit processes so called because they are diffused into bulk silicon rather than on a substrate such as sapphire.

transportability

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Those characteristics of hardware or software which allow its transferal from one system to another system and to interface compatibly with the hardware and software of the new system.

Random impurities of uncontrolled location and density present in the bulk silicon of the wafer prior to the diffusion processes. Bulk impurities are of concern because of the growth of the various ...
